Kwikset 488CV-11P Cove Knob Half Dummy Lock Venetian Bronze

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488CV-11P is a half dummy knob designed for doors that require a pull or passage function without a latching or locking mechanism. Finished in Venetian Bronze, this Cove-style knob is mounted to one side of the door and is used strictly for decorative and functional pulling purposes. It is suited for closets, pantries, and interior applications where a non-turning, non-latching knob is the correct hardware choice. The knob measures approximately 3.3 inches in length, 2.9 inches in width, and 3.2 inches in height. At 0.4 pounds, it is a lightweight, straightforward hardware piece installed by finish carpenters, door hardware installers, or capable DIYers.

This half dummy knob is intended for single-sided installation on interior doors that swing freely or are used in closet and wardrobe applications. Because no latch or bolt is involved, it is not appropriate for entry doors or any application requiring security, passage latching, or keyed access. It works as part of a coordinated hardware scheme where only one side of the door needs a knob handle. The Venetian Bronze finish coordinates with other Kwikset Cove-series hardware for a consistent look throughout an interior space.

Installation Notes

Half dummy knobs are typically installed by finish carpenters or door hardware technicians and require no latch bore preparation — only a knob-hole bore on one face of the door. No electrical shutoff or special tools beyond a screwdriver are required. Ensure the door panel is stable and properly hung before installing door hardware. Do not install a half dummy knob on any door intended for security or passage-latching applications.
